I got into bullies in 2001 when I went to hang out with a co-worker at his house and his roomate both had pitbulls. I was scared b/c of the media hype. His dog, Houdini, stole my heart when I sat on the couch and he walked up and set his head on my lap and just looked at me with those eyes. I have been fighting the fight ever since.

My wife and I have 2 rescue dogs of our own: Houdini (named after the reason I have pitbulls) and China. Houdini is about 10 months and 40lbs, China is about 2 years and 55lbs. They are our first pitbulls. Both were adopted from PitPrints here in Atlanta. We are currently fostering Leroy for PitPrints, but it seems he may be going to his forever-home very soon. He will be dearly missed when he gets adopted.
